Preparations have begun.

We started preparing for this three month adventure several months ago....

Do we have the proper clothing for all types of weather? No! So it was off to the mail order catalogs and stores while the sales of winter clothing were still in force. Now we're prepared for sunshine, rain, heat and cold! We have everything from hiking boots to sandals.

We stocked up on maps, travel guides, RV park directory (hard copy & computer version), "The Next Exit", and last but most important the 2007 Milepost. The Milepost is a must have guide to everything in Alaska, British Columbia, and the Yukon.

Our "Monty" is still in storage but we'll be bringing it home Monday, June 4th to start packing. Scheduled departure is Saturday, June 9th. to avoid weekday L.A. traffic.

I'll try to keep this blog updated as I have time and a WIFI connection.
